Paris will host the États généraux des musiques du monde on 11-12 September 2009. Deadline for submitting proposals: 30 June 2009
Cultures France reports on its website that Paris will host the États généraux des musiques du monde on September 11 and 12, 2009.
“Aesthetic pluralism, cultural globalization issues, perspectives on diversity—these are some of the many important facets of this wide-ranging reflection on the world’s music. Zone Franche, the Musiques du monde network, is inviting artists, culture professionals, researchers, elected officials, journalists, music enthusiasts and other interested parties to join an open and multidisciplinary discussion. The objective is to take stock of a reality that is multifaceted and complex but also eminently concrete, and to determine future actions to take.”
The États Généraux des Musiques du monde is already underway and people are being encouraged to take part. The first step will be an online discussion and participation forum. Until June 30, the forum will accept articles, positions, and testimonials, with a view to pinpointing issues and identifying the expectations of the various parties.
The event is organized by Zone Franche with the support of Cultures France and in collaboration with Mondomix and Sciences Po Paris.
